Psalms 88:10-16

¹⁰Do you do miracles among the dead? Do the dead stand up to praise you? Selah.

¹¹Your faithful love—is it mentioned in the grave? Your trustworthiness—is it discussed in the place of destruction?

¹²Are the wonderful things you do known in the darkness? Is your goodness known in the land of forgetfulness?

¹³But I cry out to you for help; every morning I pray to you.

¹⁴Lord, why do you reject me? Why do you turn away from me?

¹⁵I have been sick since I was young, often at death's door. I have had to bear the terrible things you've done to me. I'm in despair!

¹⁶Your anger has overcome me; the terrible things you do have destroyed me.
